There’s a bottomless brunch in Manchester where you can drink endless cups of rum punch and eat unlimited portions of chicken wings, and it sounds like absolute heaven.
Launched by the hit BBQ restaurant, bar, and music venue The Blues Kitchen, chicken wing fans can enjoy 90 minutes of non-stop munching for £12 per person (or £20 for two people).
Served with a tasty blue cheese dip and celery, those heading down can expect to find giant platters of The Blues Kitchen’s legendary buffalo (or Korean) wings on offer every Sunday.
First launched in February this year, it has been described by the venue as ‘the ultimate wing-eating challenge.’
Of course, when you’re eating that much buffalo sauce chances are you’re going to want a few drinks to wash all that spice down. This is where The Blues Kitchen’s bottomless drinks deal comes in.
Only available to order with food, there are two 90 minutes bottomless drinks options to choose from: unlimited rum punch and mimosas for £19.95 or unlimited glasses of prosecco for £21.96.
As the drinks and food packages are available to order separately, if you don’t feel like housing down a hundred chicken wings but still want to go bottomless there are plenty of other options here too.
From hot buffalo chicken and buttermilk fried shrimp sandwiches to double bacon cheese smash burgers, plates of huevos rancheros, smoked baby back ribs, cajun blackened salmon and smoked salmon and eggs, there’s a huge range of tempting choices to pick from.

Small plates, meanwhile, include the likes of cheeseburger spring rolls, smashed avocado tostadas and Szechuan baby back ribs, with prices starting from just £7.50.
As of June, the team has also introduced Korean wings to its bottomless deal. Available every Sunday throughout the month between 12pm – 6pm, guests can feast on bottomless Korean wings coated in sweet and lightly-spiced Guochang sauce for only £12.
First launched in Manchester two summers ago, the BBQ, bourbon and blues music venue doesn’t just boast a brilliant kitchen but also a a star-studded lineup of music performers in its upstairs venue.

First vendors confirmed Glossop Market Hall, including two indie Manc traders
Danny Jones
The first vendors for the upcoming Glossop Market Hall have been announced, and the lineup includes two beloved Greater Manchester independent businesses.
Better still, the third is another noteworthy name from the North West.
Glossop Market Hall is scheduled to launch later this year, setting up shop in the historic town hall complex, where the High Peak Borough Council, a retail shopping arcade and various other municipal buildings have stood in various different iterations for nearly well over a century.
With the Derbyshire town set to celebrate the opening of the newly revamped market hall, those behind the new Glossop attraction have now revealed the first three names set to take up residence there.
As you can see, the biggest names already signed on to cook from one of the six kitchens is a Manchester favourite food hall in its own right: Hello Oriental.
The Pan-Asian paradise not only has a subterranean space below Circle Square, but also at The Trafford Centre, as well as a dessert spin-off in Freight Island.
Indie trader number two comes in the form of B&V Trading, who are based at Stanley Square in Sale and specialise in eco-friendly, UK-made treats, toys and essentials for four-legged friends.
After proving a hit with the locals, their small stall at nearby Altrincham Market has grown to see them open up not just a second site in the leafy Cheshire suburbs of Knutsford back in 2022, but now boast a third location in neighbouring Macclesfield.
Speaking of Macc, local gin and whisky makers, Forest Distillery – based up at the famous Cat and Fiddle Inn pub towards the Peaks – they round out the first wave of regional businesses set to pop up in Glossop Market Hall (GMH) when it finally arrives this winter.
And once again, as the update on social media reads: “This is just the beginning”.
Natives, day-trippers and tourists from all over are bound to visit this place when it opens sometime in November (exact date still TBC), and with space not only for a dedicated bar, dining space and a coffee shop, but a total of 17 retail spaces, we can’t wait to see what comes next.
GMH becomes just the latest among a growing trend of food and drink halls popping up all over our part of the country, with virtually every Greater Manchester borough now boasting at least one of their own – or, in the city centre’s case, what feels like a dozen now.
Exhibit number… not sure, we’ve lost track at this point.
